SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 5, 1999

Clean Trees will be picked up at the curb on your regular garbage service day during the week of January 3-7 at all residencies throughout the city of San Francisco.

Because these trees will be composted, we cannot accept trees with flock, wooden or plastic or metal stands, wires or ornaments. More than 5,500 tons of trees have been collected and recycled since this program's inception more than 12 years ago.

Our Customer Service Center staff is available to answer questions, Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

    San Francisco customers can call these Customer Service Centers
at:

     Sunset Scavenger Company           330-1300
     Golden Gate Disposal & Recycling   626-4000

During the past 79 years, Sunset Scavenger Company and Golden Gate Disposal & Recycling Company have launched many innovative recycling programs for the residents and businesses of San Francisco. Both are 100% Employee-Owned, wholly-owned subsidiaries of San Francisco-based Norcal Waste Systems, Inc.
